A Superior Court judge Tuesday ordered a Burlington County home improvement company and six defendants to pay more than $285,000 in restitution to defrauded customers and nearly $17 million in civil penalties, the Division of Consumer Affairs said. Authorities said the defendants sold consumers contracts with Williams Asphalt Materials L.L.C.,
a paving company that also operated under similar names, performed shoddy work, and failed to honor warranties to repair cracked and crumbling driveways. Some defendants were not registered as home improvement contractors with the Division of Consumer Affairs as required by state law. http://bit.ly/uzkvo8
